Resume in the Field of Pharmacy
References should be provided on a separate sheet, included on an application, or listed on your
resume simply as “References available upon request.” Generally, a reference list will consist of the
name, title, work mailing address, telephone number and email address of three to five academic and
work/professional references. Do not use friends and relatives as references. Good choices include
faculty members, supervisors, organization advisors and fellow researchers.
What is a Curriculum Vita?
A curriculum vita, often called a "C.V." or "Vita" for short, is a detailed, lengthy, structured outline of
your education, publications, projects, awards and employment history. It is not uncommon for a mid-
career candidate’s vita to be as long as twenty pages. Vitae are typically required for positions in
academia, including college-level administration or teaching and scientific research. Generally, you
should assume that all academic positions at four-year academic institutions require a vita, while other
positions require resumes, unless the job announcement specifically requests a vita.
Information to Include in Your CV
Depending on the discipline in which you are applying for a position, the exact format of your vita may
vary. However, the basic information stays the same. We suggest you ask a graduate advisor or
other faculty member to review your vita for specific content and format. The following information,
however, should be included in every CV:
o

technology and other technical skills
Include a cumulative footer at the bottom of each page of your vita. A cumulative footer lets the
reader know which page s/he is reading. Include your first page as page number one. The footer can
be a smaller font size to conserve space, and is most appropriately placed in the lower, right-hand
corner of the page. Refer to the Example CV later in this document for a suggested format.

Avoid the following personal information unless you are specifically requested to provide it:
